Monkeyfist Fire Poi

By Home of Poi

Medium Monkey Fist Fire Poi are also a very popular style, providing similar flame characteristics to the medium cathedral Fire Poi. With the added bonus of being a more fitting ball of fire with a meteor tail of flame. These sets also have a fuel compartment within the core for extending the burn time. Unfortunately because of the time involved in making these they do cost a bit more than Cathedral Style Fire Poi.Larger Monkey Fists are available and are rather heavy with big flames requiring you to have big strong arms, not for the fainthearted. But wow what a show!

All Fire Poi Sets

All our Fire Poi sets have KEVLAR® wicks . If you look after the wick it can last for years.

However if you let the fire wicks smoulder by allowing all the fuel to be used up then the KEVLAR® wick will burn away slowly and fall apart. Sunlight also degrades and darkens the color of KEVLAR® wick slowly over time. So it is good to have wick covers when using Fire Props during daylight, it also stops you getting your daytime clothes dirty from the residues on the wicks. Many people wrap some tin foil over the wicks and then put some colorful socks over that. We also sell some fluffy covers which can fit over some common KEVLAR® Fire Heads.

Because of how expensive pure KEVLAR® is our wick also contains other aramid fibers and fabric grade fiberglass. (not the kind that itches or stabs you. After all at HoP we work with it all day. We sell many configurations/styles of Fire Heads.

great"pretty damn sturdy, burnin them for 2 years now and they still last for 4min. Big , round pretty flame .Only disatvange is the chain..if it's too long u're stuck with that length. There's no DIY way to make it shorter and then add back swivels , at least for me. Better be extra careful on that one."Vv, Romania. [Verified Buyer]SILVER Member since Aug 2015

Happy spinner"The poi feel balanced and spin very nicely. The smooth swivels and the small size of the chain links make orbitals surprisingly easy with this pair. Over all the quality seems excellent. A joy to spin. Making the knots was definitely not as easy as the video guide makes it look, but totally doable and kind of rewarding as well. The trickiest part was getting the rope to stay in the channels of the core. Only minor complaint is that I would prefer to have slightly larger loops in the handles. An extra thumbs-up for the customer service, as I did have an issue with the delivery (due to no fault on the part of HoP), which was promptly solved by the HoP staff."Halla, Finland.

Fantastic quality!"Having learned to spin poi years ago in Phoenix, AS, USA I've been dying to spin fire ever since! I ordered these owing to the fact that HoP was where a close friend of mine got his poi from! The quality and construction of the both the LED and fire poi blows me away, and the resources available to learn more tricks and proper safety and care of the poi are a wonderful bonus!"Keltyn Ruddock, USA.

For the lovers of fire this is the ultimate fist of flame."The name extra large Monkey Fist undersells the awesome fireball from these Gorilla Fists. Using regular white gas these wicks will burn a beachball to basketball sized orb of flame for 8-12 minutes. The construction is beyond solid, you can burn these over a hundred times. Fair warning, they are hefty. You better mind your shoulders if you want to do any antispin combinations with these. Personally I used these as a rope dart head for a particular type of performance. This pair of wicks is ideal and excellent value for me. I have heavily abused my first pair and now own another pair. Here is one of the wicks after at least 100 burns, and heavy abuse such as slamming the wick against concrete, sometimes repeatedly. Taking my pet fireball for a spin.
